    Jacob, you can take a riverboat dinner cruise in New Orleans. They take you a few miles up river and back while you eat. They have jazz bands perform

    Traditionally, a ship had 3 or more masts while boats had fewer, however, since modern vessels don't use masts anymore, the difference is more along the line of size.

    I’ve always called the steering portion of a boat/ship the “wheel house.” Not really sure if that’s the correct terminology, but have always been told that. My Grandpa who passed away quite some years ago spent over 30 years on the Ohio River working on tugboats.

    Vessels intended for navigation of coastal and inland waters are generally called boats, while ocean-going vessels are generally called ships. However, the former are also generally smaller than the latter. Thats a definition I found on Google. Also where the Captain steers the ship is called the Bridge. Left side of a ship is called Port, The right side is called Starboard, The front of a ship is called Forward or Bow, and the back of the Ship is called Aft or Stern. The floor of a ship is called the Deck and the walls of the ship is called the Bulkhead. Plus the bathroom is called the Head and the kitchen/dining area is called the Mess hall and basically where the sailors sleep is called the Berthing area.

    Hi, Jacob! I had been wanting you do this River Roadtrip, mostly because of MIMAL the chef/elf. Growing up, this is how I was taught to remember the states from Minnesota to Louisiana (which is shaped like an elf with TN being the frying pan and KY being the fried chicken.) I think you could say MIMAL is like a cryptid-esque character, because, according to legend, no one has been able to complete the full 5 state journey without an unlucky run-in with the elusive/murderous elf. If anyone was up for the challenge it would be the Carpetbagger. Best of luck… haha, can’t wait to watch this one!
